Sir I am Leo dhas 42 years old guy from tamilnadu Iindia. I like to work with your concern I write about my experience bellow. If possible please give me a chance to work at your concern.
Last 17 years I am in recording field. I start my carrier from compact cassette. I was work in a communication centre name NANJIL NATHAM COMMUNICATION CENTRE at nagercoil. At there they have music programes cultural programs local television channel and media education. So I got a good knowledge on this field. They have a audio recording studio also. Actually I start my carrier from that studio.
At the early periods we record directly on the magnetic cassettes I mean compact cassette. In 1992 they purchase tascam 2T recorder and tascam pv mixing console. So I start to record on 2T recorder. In 1994 they bought another one tascam 4T recorder. And in 1995 they bought ales sis adat recorder and makie 24- 8- 2 bus mixing console. And in 1998 they shift to nuendo 1.5 and Yamaha O1V mixing console. So I also enter into digital recordings.
From nanjilnatham I have not enough salary so me resign my job and now am working at Trivandrum. Now I am working with nuendo 3 and tascam digital mixer.
I was done so many live recordings like thavil nadaswaram, chenda, thappu, panchavathyam, guitar, violin concerts like instrumentals and drama speeches, poems, voice dubbings and song recordings midi track recordings voice recordings and video rerecording and so many. Maybe I have a touch in all type of recordings like live or sequencings.
And other than studio recording I have experience with music programes sound mixing and cultural programes sound and light programes and video programes also.
Now me working in a famous studio at Trivandrum. At this studio mostly cinema recordings and some of albums and serials.
The above what me say is my carrier history. If possible please call me on 09895115527 or mail me to leoviji@live.com
